About
Perched on ahill top 2,700 feet above sea level. In the very heart of
India's southern most state.
And ensconsed just beyond the parameters of periyar ( a 777 sq. km. refuge
for a multitude of mejestic beasts ), is a 3 1/2 acre rustic estate
enveloped amidst a quilt of thick woods.
Intermittantly dotted with vividly hued foliage, coffee plants, spice
bushes and fruits tree, this verdant properly is further distinguished by a
host of villas firmly rooted high up on 11 foot stilts.
A vertable Eden, albeit a slightly untamed one. Or as we call it, The Taj
Garden Retreat, Thekkady
